Hello the expert!.

i'm using pro version & flash 10.0

i'm new in this, especially in java, but good in actionscript

why i got nothing(empty values) when i pass the array of objects??
ex: myArrayObj=[Person1,Person2,Person3]

//------------client side-------------------------

var obj:Object = {}
obj.myArrayObj = myArrayObj;
obj.test=new Array(1,2,3);

sfs.sendXtMessage(extensionName, "enter", obj)

//--------------server side-----------------------
ActionscriptObject arr1 = prms.getObj("myArrayObj");
ActionscriptObject arr2 = prms.getObj("test");

res.put("myArrayObj",arr1);
res.put("test",arr2);

//--------------return to flash(client side)-----------

i've got the right value for test>>>1,2,3
BUT,
i've got nothing for myArrayObj>>>got empty value

can anyone show me the right way how to do this...

any help!...TQ

How are Person1, Person2 and Person3 defined? What is their type?

Currently, the supported data types are: Array, Object, Boolean, Number and int.

Hi again!

Thanx for your quick reply.

Actually, the data type is a Class of Point (derived from Shape class)

so, the data will be an array of Point object.
this variable was defined from another class.

ex:
var myArrayObj:Array;
myArrayObj= new Array();

for (var px:uint = 0; px < 10; px++) {
for (var py:uint = 0; py < 10; py++) {
var point:Point = new Point();
addChild(point);
var id:uint=px+py*10;
point.id=id;
myArrayObj[id]=point;
point.x=21+42*px;
point.y=21+42*py;
point.init();
}
}

i wanted to retrieve back the same value (myArrayObj) inside flash.

thanks again for your time

SmartFoxServer does not support 'Point' type , so therefore won't work. You will need to manually convert the required data into an Object before storing it inside myArrayObj.

Ok, thanks for the info.

then i need to pass vars as object instead of array.

any simple example on how to pass an object to server side (java) then get the response result inside flash.

I might mess around, sorry.

thanx again for your quick responce. I really appreciate it.

I don't know flash, but you can easily send collection of Actionscript objects, or JSON objects to the client. Let's assume that you have class Point on server:

Code: Select all

public Class Point
{
        private int _x;
        private int _y;
        
        public Point(int x, int y)
        {
                _x = x;
                _y = y;
        }

        public int getX()
        {
                return _x
        }

        public int getY()
        {
                return _y
        }

If you store your server points as array or some collection, you can easily convert that data into collection of actionscript objects:

Code: Select all

          LinkedList<ActionscriptObject> points = new LinkedList<ActionscriptObject>(); 

          for(int i = 0; i < arrayOfPoints.length; i++)
          {
                  ActionscriptObject point = new ActionscriptObject(); 
                  point.putNumber("x", arrayOfPoints[i].getX());
                  point.putNumber("y", arrayOfPoints[i].getY());  
                  points.add(point);        
          }

Now you can send this collection back to client:

Code: Select all

                 ActionscriptObject response = new ActionscriptObject();
                 response.putCollection("points", points);

                  // and now just send it to users...

Thank you so much! You literally saved my day. I'll follow all the mentioned steps. Hopefully these work.

Thanx again to Sarevok & BigFish
